An analysis of a sample of interfaces of OPACs is presented, particularly those aspects that concern the search that more difficulties raises: the access by subjects. The chosen sample includes twenty catalogues of university libraries of Spain and Latin America in Spanish and with different systems. The studied points are the subject access from the first screen of the catalogue, the search process, the presentation of the set of results obtained, the information given on each recovered document and the reformulation of the search. Screen captures are shown as a representative example of the different aspects analyzed.
